Only thing with the admin email idea is would need like a link forgot password then in another window you would have input the email you used at sign up and if the emails match then it sends a new password. Or it could be hell for you if someone found your admin login page.

glad it works

yeah thats how I planned to do it. on the admin login, they click 'Forgot Password' which will take them to a page where they insert the email on file, and when matched would send the new one.

and shouldn't be too much trouble at all. I'll be busy the rest of the evening so I'll do something with this tomorrow. Cheers!

Attached is admin_update_v2.zip. This zip contains two updated files and two new files. The updated files are adminlogin.php and admincp.php, the new files are adminpwd.php and adminremind.php.

admincp and adminpwd implement changes to allow for the changing of the Admin Password from the backend. If you got the original package admin_update.zip please use the versions from this new package as i've made just a slight change (you probably won't even notice, but hey why not).

adminlogin and adminremind implement changes to allow for the resetting of the admin password should you forget it. It asks for the admin email on file, and when matched to the database will send a temporary password to that email. With that temporary password you may then login and use the password change feature (implemented above) to set your password to whatever you please.

Please test these and let me know how they work. As tried on my own server they are working as expected.

Note: adminremind uses the PHP Mail() function, if your host/server does not allow for the use of mail() this will not work for you.

Additional Note: Please remember to backup your original copies of admincp.php and adminlogin.php should you need to revert these changes.

Mr.Bill : No, I don't really do much freelance coding, I'm usually either working at my normal job, or busy with some of my own projects. However, depending on the scale of what you need done, I may be able to make some time for it; so if you wish to PM me some details on it, I can let you know.

Cheers!
